Schedule — Sons of the Pioneers

SOP 2026-depot.jpg

The Sons of the Pioneers, formed in 1933, is the original “singing cowboy” band, instrumental in creating the earliest sounds of western music. Founded by Roy Rogers (then known as Leonard Slye), Bob Nolan and Tim Spencer, the band has remained together continuously since then, rotating a total of 49 members over the years. These five talented musicians infuse new energy to this classic genre, taking audiences time-traveling into the great American West with them.
